Are you a seasoned producer struggling to stay organized, creative, and avoid burnout? Look no further! I’ve survived six virtual galas, three months of spotty internet, and a kid in remote learning, and I’m here to share my tips with you.
First up, let’s talk about timelines. Don’t just create one and forget about it. Update it often and add in new deliverables. Over-remind your clients about important dates and approvals. Trust me, it’s worth it.
Next, let’s talk about Google Docs. This tool is a lifesaver when it comes to keeping your team organized and on track. Use it to create an ROS and treatment for your show. Add in every detail that helps the client get it.
Different clients require new approaches. Keep it fresh and avoid boring your audience. Infuse entertainment, music, and stellar graphics to keep them engaged. And don’t forget to take care of yourself. Set boundaries, make time for yourself, and create in your personal time.
Finally, QC your content. Don’t rely on others to check your work. Know the delivery specs, talk to post, test, and watch everything before it goes to the client.
Use these tools to organize your project from start to finish, and you’ll be setting yourself up for success and bigger, badder projects to come.
